9/19/2021 - Vin_geek Likes this wine: 92 pointsThe fuit was still lively, with cherry and dark berry notes underpinned by a lovely aroma of roses. The tertiaries of mushroom and dirt were elevated. On the palate, med to med + acid and med+ tannins. Likely would even get better with a few more years |

NV Presto Prosecco BrutGlera more |
5/5/2021 - Vin_geek Likes this wine: 87 pointsFresh apple, along with light pear and floral notes. This is a simple, crisp Prosecco with a nice acidic backbone and a faint bitter finish. Would work for a straight-forward, refreshing summer bubbly or a spritz. |

4/22/2021 - Vin_geek Likes this wine: 89 pointsMed ruby color, with a light nose of bright red fruit (cherry and plum notes). After a bit of searching, there are herbal aromas, baking spice and menthol. Great acid in this wine and young tannins. |

2017 Pax Syrah Armagh VineyardSonoma Coast more |
4/20/2021 - Vin_geek Likes this wine: 91 pointsMedium purple, with a slight ruby tinge. The two standouts here are the briny olive aromas and the clove/cinnamon spice (with clove taking center stage). There are notes of dark fruit and dill; medium body. This is a Syrah that smacks you in the face, in a very good way. Certainly still young, and will likely improve with age. Though I have to say, very fun to drink now. |
